Israel and Hezbollah launch new attacks after deadly day in Lebanon [Video]

Israel struck Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon and the Iran-backed group attacked military facilities in northern Israel on Tuesday, increasing fears of a full-blown conflict after Lebanon suffered its deadliest day in decades.

Israel’s military chief said Hezbollah, which suffered major blows recently, must not be given a break and that attacks on the Iran-backed group would be accelerated after Lebanon’s deadliest day in decades.

“The situation requires continued, intense action in all arenas,” said Military Chief of General Staff Herzi Halevi after holding a security assessment.
